DETROIT — Ardreal “Bossman” Holmes Jr. of Flint, Michigan effectively defended his USBA Super Welterweight Championship by stopping Marlon Harrington of Detroit in the second round.
Holmes(15-0, 6 KOs), a 6′ 2″ southpaw and 2016 U.S. Olympic alternate, fought in the 10-round, all-Michigan main event of the inaugural “Big Time Boxing USA” event, presented by Salita Promotions and live streamed on DAZN from Wayne State Fieldhouse in Detroit. In the opening frame, Holmes was cautious of Harrington’s strength, but in the second, he opened up with a potent southpaw left hand.
